Last November, mid-day reported that Aamir Khan had suggested some changes to his production, Lahore 1947, after watching its first cut (History class again for hero, Nov 27). Looks like it’s time for director Rajkumar Santoshi and leading man Sunny Deol to implement Khan’s suggestions. We have learnt that by next week, Deol will be back on the set of Lahore 1947 for what will be the last leg of the period drama that explores the emotional journey of people caught in the turmoil of India’s partition.     

The unit will head to Punjab for the schedule, the prep for which is underway. A source reveals, “Sunny and Santoshi sir will shoot most of these newly envisioned sequences in real locations of Punjab. The shoot will begin on October 10 and go on for 12 days.” While Lahore 1947 also stars Preity Zinta and Shabana Azmi, the upcoming leg will involve only Deol, as other primary cast members are said to have finished shooting their portions.
